Alien Knights

After communicating with Ackerman and Minnie about race relations for a while, Todd let the two leave first, and sat alone on the sofa, looking at the cigarette butts that had not been extinguished, quietly in a daze.

Will there be any unpredictable situation when the creature with the tyrant virus in its body combines with human beings?

The answer to this question is what worries him the most now.

Partly because it might spark racial conflict in the kingdom, and partly because Aurora...

When he thought of that innocent and lively daughter, there were unstable factors in his body that might be caused by reproductive isolation, and Todd couldn't calm down.

Just when he was restless, the voice of the servant came from the door again.

"Your Majesty, sorry to bother you, Princess Aurora requests an audience."

Todd was taken aback, and subconsciously said, "Let her in."

Immediately afterwards, he seemed to remember something again, and hurriedly said to the door: "Wait a minute!"

Opening all the windows, Todd waved his arms, and a gust of wind rose from the room, exhausting all the accumulated tobacco exhaust outside, before he said again: "Come in."

Before the guards could fully open the door, Aurora, with her elegant princess head coiled up, rushed into the room with both feet, and threw herself into Todd's arms.

Aurora grabbed Todd's clothes, frowned, sniffed and sniffed, and whispered, "It smells strange."

Todd smiled and pulled his daughter in front of him, knelt down and asked, "At this time, you should be with the teacher to complete your homework."

Aurora puffed up her chest and said proudly: "I have done all the homework today."

Todd asked in surprise: "It's all done? It's not even noon yet, how did you do it?"

"It's a secret."

"Tell me, in exchange, I can take you out of the palace to play."

Tilting her head and thinking for a while, Aurora shrugged: "Deal."

"The amount of homework assigned to me by the teachers is adjusted according to my learning progress every day. If the things taught today are mastered quickly, then tomorrow will increase the content appropriately."

Aurora said proudly: "So, as long as I pretend to be too profound in today's class, then tomorrow..."

Todd smiled bitterly: "Then tomorrow, the teacher will reduce the teaching content, so you can finish your homework openly and sneak out to play early?"

Aurora nodded proudly, tugged at Todd's sleeve and shouted, "I'm done talking! Now it's time for you to fulfill your promise!"

Todd smiled helplessly, and said to the door: "Prepare the carriage."

Aurora raised her hands and cheered loudly.

Fifteen minutes later, an unremarkable gray carriage drove away from the side entrance of the palace, and headed for the center of Muxi City along the mountain path.

Aurora, who put on a set of ordinary clothes, stood on the seat, opened the curtain of the carriage, and looked out the window curiously.

Todd rested his cheeks on his hands and looked at his daughter with a doting look on his face.

"Your Majesty... where are we going now...?"

The voice of the guards outside the carriage made Todd frown.

If Huggins was here instead, he would know Todd's daily cruise route without asking.

but now……

"Go to the central square."

After saying this, Todd leaned his back against the cushion of the seat, thinking of Hudgens' recent situation.

During the civil strife three years ago, Huggins, who was the head of the security bureau and the head of the palace, was concerned about the old friendship and dealt with the chaos in the kingdom. Not only did he fail to detect it in time, he was almost deceived by the enemy.

In dealing with this matter, Todd gave Huggins a long vacation. On the one hand, it was to protect this old friend in the later stage of liquidation. On the other hand, he also realized that Huggins might be a qualified assistant. , but will never be able to assume the responsibilities of managers.

Therefore, Todd handed over all the work related to the Security Bureau to the Alien Association, and Evie and the Valkyrie were also responsible for the management of all the affairs in the palace.

After that, Huggins wrote several times, vaguely mentioning his request to return to his post, and Todd sent him to Lone Rock City and ordered him to be responsible for the coordination of the kingdom's affairs.

"Father, look!"

Aurora turned her head to Todd, pointed out the window excitedly, and said loudly, "What is that?!"

Todd looked out as he said.

As far as the eye can see, on a construction site in the far part of the inner city, a huge creature nearly four meters high and ten meters long, with horns, elephant legs, and rhinoceros head, is pulling a super long cart full of stones and wood. Driven by people, they slowly walked towards an unfinished building.

"That's Thunder Beast." Todd touched the top of his daughter's head and said slowly: "They used to live in the deep underground cave of the Devil's Eye in the ancient city of Gucheng. When I passed there, I brought these big guys out. .”

Aurora opened her eyes and said, "They look so tall and big! And they can pull such a heavy thing!"

"The Thundering Beast is huge, but it is a kind of gentle herbivorous creature. In the deep cave, they are extremely rare war beasts that will not actively attack humans."

Todd said while recalling: "In the soul link with the underground war beast community, compared with other ferocious war beasts, they are the easiest to communicate with."

"So, among the war beasts transported from the northern border, they were also the first batch to be tamed, and are now used to help the kingdom's people's livelihood, industry, transportation and other fields."

Aurora looked at the thundering war beast in the distance, shaking its huge body, slowly laying down on the ground like a cattle, and letting people pass behind him to unload the goods on the cart, she couldn't help but exclaimed: " Father, they look very good, maybe I can raise one in the palace too?!"

Todd laughed and said: "I advise you to dismiss this idea. These big guys look very good, but once they get angry, they can easily break through a city wall."

Aurora shrank her head and continued to ask: "Aside from this, are there any war beasts that can be domesticated?"

Todd held his chin and said: "Let me think about it, the Northern Training Institute seems to have submitted a report last month that the Shadow Beast is ready for use, plus the previous bone spur giant wolf and ratchet lizard, Now there are four kinds of war beasts that can be domesticated in the kingdom."

"Any kind is fine! Can you give me one and let me keep it as a pet?"

"Neither one will work!"

Aurora pouted, put her hands on her hips and whispered, "Stingy!"

Todd rubbed his fingers at his temples. "Can't you have a cat or a dog as a pet like other kids?"

Aurora pursed her lips: "I raised a dog, and it died in just one day."

"Dead? How did you die?"

"When I picked it up, it was so scared to death."

"..."

During such a conversation, time gradually passed, the speed of the carriage slowed down, and finally stopped.

"Your Majesty, we have arrived."

Todd put on the hood of his robe, took Aurora with one hand, pushed the door open with the other, and got out of the carriage.

Muxi Central Square is actually not just a square, it generally refers to a vast area, including Shenglong Plaza (formerly known as Muxi Plaza), pilgrimage stele, central garden and central commercial street.

This is often the first stop for foreign tourists to visit Muxi City, and it is also the most frequented place for locals.

Therefore, the sea of ​​people is the best portrayal here.

Stepping on the white floor tiles, Todd took Aurora and walked forward along the sidewalk of Shenglong Square under the guard of a group of guards.
